Extended Family

I have friends who keep connecting me with all their fun extended family members.  This family was no exception.  No only did we get this done in record time.....they are all very talented.  String players are my favorite kind of musicians.  Mr. N is working hard on the Bach Concerto for Two Violins.  It is a fantastic piece of music and clearly speaks to his skill.  Utah Oct 2008-1401

Travel

If there is travel beyond 15 minutes one way there will be a travel fee agreed upon before the session. I am willing to travel out-of-state for weekend sessions and have done so several times. Please contact me for more information if you are interested in this option. If travel is out-of-state, specific travel cost agreements will be made ahead of time. For out-of-state sessions $100 non- refundable deposit per client is required when the session is scheduled.

DVD & Printing

For now, I do not retain rights to your images and you are free to take them and print them at will. I will provide a copyright release so reprints can be made legally. I do recommend Foto 1 Imaging in Ann Arbor to those inquiring. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE only print images using the matte finish. If you print images in any finish starting with a g, don't tell anyone I took the photo. (Yes, glossy is THAT bad.) I will only keep your images for up to 3 months. After three months I must delete them. The images will be burned on a DVD. If a CD is preferred please give prior notification.

Payment

Payment for sitting fee and DVD is required at the time of the photo session. If images are delivered via mail, there will be an additional $5 charge.

Newborn Sessions

These sessions require patience and a lot more time than an average session. These sessions are easiest before your baby is 2 weeks old. They are still really sleepy and much easier to photograph.

Child Sessions

Please only bring children being photographed. If a child is sick please reschedule. When photographing babies they are best documented when they can sit up and can't crawl away. Another good time is when your child can stand but is not yet walking. But of course I love photographing all ages and these are only suggestions for the littlest ones.

Family Sessions

It is preferred to shoot family portraits during family sessions and individual portraits during individual sessions. Children are only agreeable for so long during photo sessions and it is difficult to shoot family portraits and individual portraits succesfully in one session, especially for large families. If individual portraits are desired, please discuss this with the photographer ahead of time. Please consider, when making your session appointments, it is difficult to achieve the same results of an individual portrait session when individual portraits are taken during a family session.

Senior Sessions

Clothing changes are encouraged to reflect individuality.

Love Ya Lou

Look at this yummy early morning light!  Isn't she pretty.  She's mine.  My baby sister.  I can't wait to see her in a few weeks.  Sisters are a precious commodity and I have many.  Utah Oct 2008-1712

The Cheeks

This little one would smile as quick as I could start singing "Rubber Ducky...you're the one...".  I never did get the second line of the song.  But he didn't seem to notice.  So cute.Utah Oct 2008-2130

Senioritis

Ok A.J.  Here are some of what you have been waiting for.  And I agree with you....in thinking he is just as handsome as he is talented.  I hope I don't embarrass him by saying so.  :-)  The DVD is coming.
